Utilising a case study methodology the community project is described including its inception,development, features and benefits that have occurred as a result. The impact upon the Glynneath and key groups therein is discussed in terms of communityregeneration and involvement with the website that was the main focus of the project. A literature review on E-communities is presented and contexualtises the findings of the study. The paper concludes by identifying the key issues in the development of an e-community namely the emergence of champions and embedding the website within the culture of contributing organisations. |
